Understanding Tendinopathy

Tendinopathy involves degeneration of tendon tissue due to repeated strain or poor biomechanics.

Common areas: Achilles, patellar tendon, rotator cuff, and tennis elbow.

Physiotherapy Treatment Approach

Load Management: Adjust training volume without complete rest.

Progressive Loading: Eccentric and heavy slow resistance exercises to rebuild tendon strength.

Manual Therapy: Deep friction massage, myofascial release, and mobilization.

Pain Relief Modalities: Shockwave therapy, ultrasound, and laser therapy.

Preventing Recurrence

Correct movement patterns and biomechanics.

Strengthen supporting muscles and improve flexibility.

Implement sport-specific tendon conditioning.
